基于密度泛函理论的赝势平面波方法,研究了Mg(BHt)。在高压下的电子结构和密立根布居分析.结果表明,当压强为0.64GPa时,常压相q—Mg(BH4)z发生结构相变,生成新相0-Mg(BHt)z,其空间群为I4·/amd,并且该结构具有稳定的声子谱.电子结构的计算表明,当压力从0GPa增加到0.64GPa时,B-H原子间键长变化不明显,但是B原子的s和P电子态与H原子的s电子态的杂化增强,使得高压相13-Mg(BH4)2结构的BOP大于常压相的值.这表明,高压相B和H原子之间具有更强的共价特征,H原子更难解离.
Based on the method of the plane wave pseudopotential of density functional theory, the electronic structure and the Mulliken population analyses of Mg(BH4 )2 were studied in high pressure. It is shown that a phase transition takes place at 0. 64 GPa from the ~-Mg (BH4)2 (orthorhombic-F222) structure to the ~-Mg(BH~)2 (tetragonal-I41/amd) structure. The high pressure phase occurs dynamically stable. The calcu- lated electronic structures show that B s, p and H s orbits implying strong hybridization from 0 GPa to 0.64 GPa. The BOpsH values for the 13-Mg(BH4 )2 structure is bigger than those of the a-Mg(BH4 )2, which indicates that the I?-Mg(BH4)2 phase exhibits more remarkable covalent bonding characteristic.
